I started running back in September using c25k and ran my first 5k the color run on November 1, 2014 in 46:10. Since it was going to be my birthday April 18th, I decided to do the diva run yesterday to celebrate. My official time was 34:53. I'm so happy! I can't wait to run more races even faster![img]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/chesnity3/Mobile Uploads/PicsArt_1429534645067_zpsjirhzuql.jpg[/img]

    Thank you! I still have my days when I want to quit and give up, but as long as you keep trying and give it your all, you'll do great things.
